On November 25, 2009 Ancestry.ca completed the online launch of the Canadian Passenger Lists, 1919-1924 . I visited Ancestry.com and did a search in this new database for people born in Greece -- 1,065 results were returned. As usual, there are some results that don’t seem to make sense, but most are Greek surnames. If you have ancestors that arrived in Canada during the 1919-1924 time frame, this may be a very helpful resource. Apparently this is the only online source for this data to-date. Remember that if you don’t want to purchase a membership to Ancestry.com, most libraries have an Ancestry.com version that you can use in the Library for FREE. - Also, Ancestry.ca is currently offering a 14 day free trial.

If you have ancestors that migrated to Australia you might be interested in the National Library of Australia’s “Historic Australian Newspapers, 1803 to 1954” online. As of November 21, 2009 there are 33 newspapers online, 920,989 pages consisting of 9,130,178 articles available to search. I did a search on the word “Greek” and got 69,896 results. Try searching on your family name. Good luck with your Greek family genealogy research. Georgia Keilman http://HellenicGenealogyGeek.com A resource for Greek genealogy research

Here is today’s Greek recipe. Spinach with Rice (Spanakorizo) Ingredients: 2 lbs. spinach 1 cup chopped onions ½ cup olive oil 1-1/2 cups short grain rice 2 tablespoons lemon juice 1 tablespoon dill 3 cups water salt and pepper Directions: Wash spinach. Remove stems, drain leaves well and tear into pieces. (If I use baby spinach I don’t bother to try and remove stems, just use as is) In a deep pan gently fry onion in oil until soft. Stir in rice and cook 5 minutes. Add remaining ingredients (except spinach). Bring to a boil and then add spinach. Stir well, cover and cook gently for 15 minutes. (I always check to make sure rice is done – sometimes it takes a little longer to get done.) Remove from heat, leave tightly covered and allow to stand for 5 minutes before serving. Hope you enjoy it! Georgia Keilman http://HellenicGenealogyGeek.com A resource for Greek family genealogy research.
